Story
When Domino arrived, our hearts broke in a very specific way. He was happy. Thrilled, even. New dogs to play with. New people to charm. His tail was a blur and there was a bounce in his step that said, “Oh good -- this place is fun!!!”Then his person left.And if you’ve never watched a dog realize they’ve been left behind, it’s a quiet kind of devastation -- like a balloon slowly losing air. Domino didn’t cry or panic. He just… deflated.Domino is a healthy, affectionate, playful 2-year-old cattle dog mix who adores humans of all ages and dogs of all types. He landed here through no fault of his own -- or anyone’s, really. A sad twist of fate placed him in a home where another dog simply wasn’t comfortable with him. To keep Domino safe, his people made the heartbreaking decision to find him a place where he could relax, be himself, and never have to worry.Here’s the thing about Domino -- he’s a trooper. By the next day, he seemed to have made a decision. He shook it off. Tested out his tail. Realized it still wags. Then he got down to business: toys, playtime, and leaning into every human willing to sit still long enough to cuddle.But this isn’t the ending he deserves.Domino deserves a family of his own -- one where his joy doesn’t have to be brave, and where wagging his tail doesn’t come with an asterisk. Domino is waiting at Animal Aid Society, located at 80 Butler Farm Road in Hampton, VA. Visiting hours are 9am to noon, including weekends and holidays. Come meet him. Fair warning -- once you see that tail in action, it’s hard not to picture it wagging just for you.Interested? Come for a visit any day of the week - 365 days a year between 9am - 12pm. Hope to see you soon!PLEASE NOTE: Animal Aid Society observes a 40 mile adoption radius to facilitate post adoption support and follow ups.

Story
Meet Comet! Comet is a 6-month-old red heeler mix bursting with energy and affection. This happy pup loves being outdoors—whether he’s soaking up the fresh air, chasing his ball, or enjoying his favorite chew toys. Comet is very people-friendly and affectionate, and he does well with other dogs. Although he is social, he appreciates having a crate as his own cozy, private space where he can relax and recharge. Because Comet is still young and has the smart, energetic nature of a heeler, he will thrive with training, patience, and consistent guidance. He would make a wonderful companion for an active home ready to give him love, playtime, and structure as he grows!

Story
Bambi is a very playful and active dog. He is a year and a half old but still has a ton of puppy energy. I would reccommend he goes to an experienced adopter and he would do great in a big fenced in backyard for playtime! He is very sweet and loving and loves to follow you around everywhere. He is potty trained and crate trained. Sadly, he needs to be rehomed because he needs more space to run and I don’t have space for him at this time. He would do great with an active family. (His adoption fee is $0, I do not expect any money for him, I just want him to go to a good home)

Story
MAX - 6 years old, kid/cat/dog social, typical cattle dog behavior   Max is a vibrant and active boy surrendered for being too hyper and needing more room for his energy.   This dog needs exercise, playtime and room to move.  This dog needs exercise, playtime and room to move.  This dog needs exercise, playtime and room to move.    Reinforcing the fact that this boy is always on the move, please do some research on cattle dogs bc they, like all other breeds, have specific characteristics which may or may not align with your family's lifestyle.   Max is fun. He is the one bouncing off the walls. He is ready to go at all times.   He was silly in our shelter playgroup yard with the other dogs. He ran and chased and grabbed other dogs in his cattle dog style... always with a smile on his face!   Max is also great with children and cats.   He has some separation anxiety and is known to be destructive in the home if left alone. We recommend crating in these instances. PS He is already crate trained so there you go!   If you have done your research on the breed and feel Max would fit in perfectly with you and your family, come on in to meet him!  He is currently in a back kennel so if you don't see him, please just ask!Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 30, 2025, 9:42 am
